Greene issues scathing rebuke of conditions in Gaza: 'I will not be silent about it'

(The Hill) — On Saturday, Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R) intensified her campaign concerning the situation in the Gaza Strip after the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification declared a famine in the area.

“U.S. taxpayers are providing Israel with $3.8 billion annually for military support. This means every American taxpayer is contributing to Israel’s military endeavors,” Greene mentioned in a Saturday post on X.

“Personally, I don’t want my money going towards foreign conflicts, particularly those that involve harm to another country’s people. I have no connection to these wars, and I refuse to stay silent about it,” she continued.

The Georgia Republican has called on her fellow lawmakers to speak out on the matter and urge the current administration to reconsider its position regarding ongoing strikes against Palestinians in the region. 

Numerous world leaders have expressed their opposition to the actions of the Israeli government and have committed to taking steps towards recognizing Palestine as a sovereign nation. 

In contrast, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has criticized these decisions, asserting that the government’s goal is to dismantle Hamas, the terrorist group responsible for the attack on Israel during a music festival on October 7, 2023.

“The innocent people in Gaza did not kill and kidnap the innocent people in Israel on Oct 7th,” Greene wrote on Saturday.

“Just as we spoke out and had compassion for the victims and families of Oct7, how can Americans not speak out and have compassion for the masses of innocent people and children in Gaza? Is one type of innocent life worthy and another type of innocent life worth nothing?” she asked.

She told her followers, “God sees all innocent lives the same” after slamming the State Department for halting the approval of Gazans’ U.S. visitor visas for groups seeking medical treatment. 

Some conservatives have shared objections to her statements.

“Why are you advocating for GAZANS to come to the US? How is Islamic immigration ‘America First’?” Laura Loomer wrote Saturday on X.

Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) weighed in on Greene’s statements in May, brushing aside the genocidal narrative.

“I [honestly] don’t care what crazy pants thinks,” Fetterman replied. “And why is that news and her views on that right now?” 

“It’s not a genocide, you know, that’s just not the case. And she’s entitled to her opinion, but I’m entitled to not really care what her views on that is,” he added later.
